KB vs Spence: the guy who hasn't been dropped seen as the one with suspect jaw, why?

When did Paulie imply Spence has a bad or questionable chin?
I don't think this matchup gets impacted let alone decided upon by either guys' chin so I don't really even understand the need for comparison. If either guy wins by stoppage I'd suggest it'll be an accumulation stoppage or it'll be more about Spence not being as good as some of us think or Spence being wayyyyy better than some of us think more than chin problems.

Originally posted by Caught Square View PostSpence has never been dropped in his pro career, all that people do is point out this shot against Lartey which he took well and shook off quickly. He took some good shots against Barrera so is it really a suspect jaw or just occasional defensive mistakes? To me Spence has proven he has a GOOD chin.
Brook has been knocked down but this rarely gets pointed out by the same people who talk about Errol's chin and he got visibly wobbled against Shenchenko.
Not saying Brook has a bad chin at all but if it was Spence dropped early in his career and wobbled vs Senchenko then those suspect chin accusations at 147 would make more sense.
Also, Spence hasn't looked great whilst taking punches from his recent opponents.

It doesn't mean that he has a shaky chin, we will only know once he gets tagged by someone decent. But right now there is a theory supported by evidence.
Some people thought Brook was shaky too. That was put to bed in the GGG fight.
Maybe the same will happen for Spence in the Brook fight.

Originally posted by LacedUp View PostBut he was wobbled? He was hurt far worse vs Lartey than Brook was vs Senchenko. And there's a million miles between the quality of those two fighters.

What do you mean by not looking great taking shots in recent fights? Bundu landed some grazing shots and Barrera landed two good shots in the first and he looked fine. Does he need to smile and encourage more punches or something?
